How Our Site Is Funded

(aka Our FTC Disclosure, and Why It Matters to You)

In short: We earn referral fees if you buy hosting from many of our partner web hosting companies via our site.

Referral Fees? Sounds Shady...

It's not. This is known as affiliate marketing. The biggest brands on the interwebz all offer affiliate programs (eg. Amazon, eBay, Expedia), while many of your favorite sites use affiliate marketing to pay the bills.

It's the internet equivalent of a salesman getting paid a commission for selling a product. Just like real life, there are scrupulous and unscrupulous salesmen online.

In fact, we were the first hosting reviews site to disclose affiliate relationships back in 2008 - four years before the FTC started requiring affiliates to disclose in 2012!

We use the revenue generated to pay the hefty costs that come with running a free, popular site - millions of people visit us each year. It also pays for the huge investment required to support features like like our awesome reviews and coupons, comparison tools.

Question #1: Will It Cost Me More? (Hint: No)

Never. In fact, our deals often save you money.

Web hosts are so keen to gain new customers that they offer us special discounts for our users. For example, say you are shopping for a host for Wordpress that supports PHP and linux. You settle on iPage.com and so - at the time of writing - get a nifty discount on your monthly fee.

In short: being awesome is not enough, and every business spends money recruiting new customers. The biggest web hosts in the world - including iPage, JustHost and BlueHost - all spend big bucks to generate new business.

New customers have to come from *somewhere*. Each of these hosts pay affiliates like us instead of spending more money on fancy print ads, human billboards or regular salespeople.

(Hint: anybody who shouts 'word of mouth!' has never tried building a business on word of mouth alone...)
